Forum Header- Change from blue? was created by crystalm28
I just downloaded 1.6.1. I am using the Blue Eagle template and would like to change the blue headers & font to another color. I attempted to change the colors under "Edit Template", but the colors did not change. Help, please :S
Thank you, Thank you!!

Hello, I had the same kind of problem, I solved it by editing the initialize.php file in the default template :
/components/com_kunena/template/default/initialize.php.
In my case, some 'default' css properties in this file were overriding my custom template's css, that's why you have to delete these properties to see your css file working properly.
E.g. line 68 :
Change
into
.
Do it for any other line with such css properties, and then you can edit the css file as you wish
Although I would not recommend editing a core file like this (since you'll have to do it everytime you upgrade kunena), at least it worked in my case.

Good catch, Strat0, and thank you for your idea.
As we all know, the "skinner" feature is very new and it could probably do with a few improvements. I agree with you, changing the source code is not recommended but, in this case, it seems to be a good workaround. We'll leave this topic "open" for the development team to read and reply to.

This is a good example of things we should be thinking about for skinner in Kunena 2.0. If ideas come up, please post them in the skinner thread here:

Sorry - I don't understand the issue.
Why don't you just enter the color you would like the headers to be?
An empty color value in css does not validate.
Did you look at this?

Thank you all.
To the developer - I did read your link before posting this question.
I followed the easy steps and change the template colors as suggested in the article. However, it did not change the Forum colors at all.
I also tried manually editing the kunena.default.css file and that did not work.
Maybe because I am using a joomla template?
I'll tried editing the PHP file and let you know the outcome! Thank you.
Thank you,
Crystal
